Cen Xi didn't see anyone along the way until she got close to the pavilion, where she met a maid from Jun Jianchou's courtyard.
As soon as she saw Cen Xi approaching, she stopped him and said:
"Master has been slightly injured, please wait here for a while, young lady. He will be here shortly."
"good!"
Cen Xi glanced at the maid and noticed her strange expression. However, he didn't ask; he would just wait, and Jun Jianchou would eventually arrive.
But after a while, she changed her mind because she smelled a strange fragrance, a drug mixed with aphrodisiac.
Cen Xi smiled and curled her lips. She knew it! Jun Jianchou had just come by this morning. If he wanted to meet her, he would have said so this morning. Why go through all this trouble?
It turns out that some people were blind and tried to scheme against her. It seems that person didn't know she was immune to all poisons.
Since I'm bored anyway, I'll see who this person is.
So she fell down as the other party had predicted, and soon the maid quietly called over a few men who carried her body to a secluded courtyard.
After entering the room and settling her on the bed, they heard the men say:
"She really is a beauty. Let's have some fun tonight, guys. Who do you think should go first?"
"Of course it's me. My family background is better than yours, Juan. Don't anyone try to take it from me. You can have your fun after I've had my fill."
Cen Xi squinted at the person who rushed in first. He weighed about 200 pounds, with a broad back and thick waist, and lots of fat. No wonder she heard the door frame creak earlier. It must have been because the fat man squeezed the door frame when he entered, which made that sound.
Oh, this guy must be rich. How about we squeeze some money out of him? Cen Xi was pondering this when the fat man walked to the bedside.
He was awkwardly untying his belt when Cen Xi suddenly sat up and, seeing his clumsy movements, quickly helped him.
The fat man was left with only his underwear in an instant.
After a series of movements, the other three people, seeing that he was silent, immediately tried to scream and run away.
How could Cen Xi let them escape? She used her light-footed skill to quickly strike the pressure points of the remaining three people.
Seeing that he had subdued his companion so quickly, the fat man wanted to scream.
Cen Xi quickly grabbed one of his companions' shoes and socks and threw them accurately at his mouth.
After completing this series of actions, Cen Xi looked around the room. It seemed that no one had lived in the room for a long time, and it was covered in dust. They really knew how to find a place.
Disliking the dirty place, Cen Xi wiped the fat man's clothes on a stool, sat down, and then slowly began to speak:
"Didn't you investigate me when you took this job? I'm weak and helpless. You're as fat as a wall, and the rest of you are as skinny as bamboo poles. Who gave you such confidence that you could control me?"
Cen Xi raised an eyebrow and mocked.
"Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!"
After she finished speaking, all four of them made some sounds, but none of them could speak clearly. Why? Because they couldn't open their mouths.
Seeing their expressions, Cen Xi seemed to realize that she had acupunctured them and gagged them.
She stood up and slowly tapped the four people on the back, then slowly asked:
"You want to sleep with me?"
"Ugh ugh ugh ugh!"
"Do you know whose woman I am?"
"Ugh ugh ugh ugh!"
"What about me? I've already slept with Prime Minister Shen. Although we weren't officially married, I'm still one of his mistresses. What do you think will happen to you if you actually succeed today? Teared apart by five horses, or made into preserved meat? I've never eaten human flesh before. How about I have him turn you into preserved meat? I can have a bite every day. Hmm! Maybe that'll be good."
Cen Xi observed their expressions as she paced back and forth between the four people. Her tone was casual, but the cruelty in her words was enough to make one want to vomit blood.
"Ugh ugh ugh ugh!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Threatened with such words, this spoiled brat turned ashen-faced and hurriedly tried to explain himself, but his mouth was gagged and he couldn't utter a single word.
At the same time, after Cen Xi finished speaking those threatening and intimidating words, a woman's voice laughed wildly from somewhere on the roof beam.
"Jun Xiaoqiao, you get down here right now."
Upon hearing the voice, Cen Xi knew it was Jun Xiaoqiao. At the same time, she understood that this woman must have known about those things before, but had never told her.
So her palm strike swept mercilessly toward the spot where Jun Xiaoqiao was hiding.
"If you were to sleep with those scoundrels tonight, I think that Prime Minister Chen should turn you into minced meat first. I was hoping to see a good show, but you're such a fierce woman. Sigh, all my schemes have been wasted. I even spent a hundred taels of silver."
Jun Xiaoqiao descended in her red dress, her eyes revealing an undisguised schadenfreude and amusement.
Seeing this, Cen Xi really wanted to punch her, to beat her up. Judging from her words, she was included in the group that came today. What kind of friends did she have? Destroyed friends! Absolutely the worst kind of destroyers!
After seeing her come down, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Cen Xi stepped forward and grabbed her neck, his smile wicked:
"You damned woman, you want to die, don't you? I'll grant your wish!"
"You! You! Let me go! If you strangle me, no one will make money for you, you damned woman! You love money so much. I'm your cash cow, okay?"
Jun Xiaoqiao had difficulty breathing, so she could only pry Cen Xi's hand away and talk about what she cared about most.
“From now on, you can only have 10% of the shares in Zhenxiulou. I will take back the other 20%. Women who scheme against me deserve to be punished more.”
Cen Xi had only intended to threaten her, so after uttering those words fiercely, she let go of her hand.
"Damn it, I knew I couldn't cheat you. Deducting money from your restaurant would mean you'd have to pay me back! But I have money. That's right, even without your Zhenxiulou's ten percent share, my Yuan family still has plenty of shops. In my life, I'll never lack money, no matter what."
Jun Xiaoqiao touched her neck, which hurt a little. Damn it, this guy really didn't know his own strength. Her fair and delicate neck had suffered a lot.
No, we can't let this woman have her way. She knows best what she cares about most—it's money, isn't it?
Flaunting his wealth would definitely annoy her. Besides, he couldn't beat her, so flaunting his wealth was the only option.
"cut!"
Cen Xi looked at Jun Xiaoqiao's smug face and couldn't help but scoff disdainfully.
Then he added:
"You don't know yet? I've hooked up with a tycoon! The wealth of a prime minister is enough for me to live on for a lifetime. Why would I envy you? Get out of my way! Today I'm going to teach these four纨绔 (playboys) you invited a lesson. Judging by their clothes, they should be young masters from wealthy families. Jun Xiaoqiao, Jun Xiaoqiao! Now that you've offended those noble young masters, how are you going to do business in Shangyang City?"
